Millie's in Madaket is always a highlight of any Nantucket trip. Fresh, tasty food (especially the tacos), great drinks, and that unreal Madaket sunset make it the perfect casual spot to hang with friends. Friendly service, fun vibes, 10/10 would recommend. read more

Millie's - Athletic N/A beer - Tex-Mex Near Me - Nantucket, Massachusetts

After catching a beautiful sunset at Madaket Beach, we stopped by Millies for dinner. Pro tip: ride the Wave shuttle, it drops you conveniently right in front of the restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, from their flavorful quesadillas to the amazing elotes. We enjoyed our meal in the spacious outside seating area, which had plenty of tables. Right next door, we discovered Millie's Market. Their ice cream hit the spot! I asked for their best-selling flavor, and the staff recommended Moose Tracks - loved those peanut butter cups inside. I would definitely come again! read more

The service was great, the food was good, but the cleanliness needs to be worked on. I couldn't really drink water since both the pitcher and the glasses were dirty. There were food chunks inside already and lips stains. Please be clean! read more

Is there anything better than Millie's?? Everytime you stop here you'll be greeted by the friendliest faces and best vibes. Live music and ocean views. You can see the best sunsets in the world from the second floor while sipping on a Madaket Mystery! And don't forget to order a 40th Pole Quesadila - thank me later. So convenient to have a spot this great in Madaket! Chris and Dunn are the best bartenders! read more

Came to Madaket to see the sunset and placed a pickup order from Millie's through doordash. The order was ready very quickly and I was on my way. They have a little picnic area to eat your take out food. This is a separate area from the outdoor seating for the restaurant and is located to the left of Millie's market. The sweet grilled corn (elote) was delightful and had a nice char flavor. The shrimp and veggie quesadilla was not greasy even though there was cheese inside. There were mango bits inside which felt refreshing. The sour cream and salsa complimented the meal well. The corn clam chowder was not overly creamy and heavy. This left room for dessert at Millie's market. The service was quick and efficient and overall I would give a pass to the food here! It is pretty much the only restaurant in Madeket and they sure made a mark. I would come back again to try their breakfast! One thing to note: bring an extra layer of clothing in the evening. read more

My family and I had one of our most memorable meals here. You can't beat the view, and the vibe really hit the spot. Our waitress was kind and attentive. She knew how to get food out quickly for kiddos and also keep the alcohol flowing for adults. We got a lovely spot in the corner on the second floor. It was hot, but it was lovely! The salads were creative and large. I also liked all the fried fish I tried. I appreciated the variety of the kids' dishes and that they came with multiple components. Casual but also a little upscale at the same time - perfect for Nantucket. read more

Great location near the beach. They have a parking lot and I am ever so grateful they have staff to manage traffic going in and out of the lot. There is a wait to get seated. We didn't have to wait that long though. We got seated on one of the outdoor picnic tables which was great! I mean, the weather in Nantucket is temperate, so we got to enjoy it while we can, right? As soon as we got seated, we got our menus and water handed to us right away. I don't know how, but our server Margot somehow could tell when we're ready or when we need her. Wauwinet Salad was delicious! Poboy Sandwich was satisfying. Street Corn appetizer was somehow both light and satisfying. read more

This review is for their amazing food cart at Cisco. Best mahi mahi with pineapple salsa taco EVER and good tuna poke. The yellow light rice with taco also best EVER. Will go to actual restaurant next time on Nantucket! Great first time at Cisco Brewery. Our first visit to Cisco and Millie's food cart gave us an A plus late lunch. Nice server! read more

Dare we say best value on the island? Especially if you are a lobster fan. The Gibbs salad has the biggest chunks of lobster that it would be hard pressed to find a more substantial lobster salad on Nantucket. Hack- get a the creamy basil dressing as extra on the side of the salad. The creamy dressing is the perfect extra complement to the salad. The lobster quesadilla was absolutely stuffed with lobster and enough for two meals. Millie's gets busy pretty early at the evening but the service is quick and attentive and food gets delivered quickly. Come before 5pm if you want to get dinner and then catch the sunset on the beach. Indoors can get a bit loud with how popular Millie's is, but there are two outdoor patios that have lots of tables and full service. Next door to Millie's is the market which has some drinks and ice cream - so make sure to check it out after dinner! read more

We were at your restaurant this past weekend, Saturday August 30. The plan was for my wife and I, as well as my son's girlfriend's parents to wait there while my son was proposing to his beautiful girlfriend on the beach. We would surprise his fiancé at your place after the proposal. When your staff found out why we were there they were very enthusiastic to help make this visit even more memorable. They were great, helping to make sure we had a table in the perfect spot, and waiting for them with us and chearing for them when they walked in. They really went above and beyond!! read more

Evie and Matt are the best bartenders. The service and food was amazing. Cant wait to come back read more

Loved everything about this restaurant! What a gem on the island. The cocktails were AMAZING - one of the best bloody mary's I have had in a long time. I loved the Mexican flair and all of the seafood offerings. Located right near Eel Point it was fun to walk to the beach afterwards. Impeccable service. read more

I'm telling you this was the best place to have some really good fresh seafood tacos! The flavors were excellent I had the $28 Eel Point tacos (tuna wasabi) and the $27 Esther Island tacos (scallop) tacos... so good!!! The fresh tacos here are on the expensive side but well worth it! It was a perfect day and walking distance to Madakat Beach! read more

The place is in an awesome location. Went for lunch and it was awesome. Started off with some chips, queso, salsa and guac. It was super solid. Rotated over to two sets of tacos. They were ok nothing special. Service was solid, always on top of getting you that next drink. Love the vibe of this place. Next time around I think I would go for just drinks and apps. read more

Been going here for over 30 yrs. This might have been our best trip yet but honestly, never had a bad one. It started in the mid-90s with a legendary day of noon-8pm mudslides and great friends as the day slipped by. Sadly, they no longer serve those but i gotta say that the menu (both drinks and food) was much better expected. My Madaket Mystery is my new fav drink. But what really stood out was the service. There were ample people helping and service was rapid and friendly. It was another legendary experience, thank you read more

What a great spot! The food was great, the beer cold and the staff wonderful! Highly recommend! read more

Millie's - Tuna!!!! - Tex-Mex Near Me - Nantucket, Massachusetts

We didn't go upstairs but from arriving, we could tell this place is hopping and has a ton of crowds going throughout the day. They had tents up so people were sitting outside but we were able to snag a spot at the bar. Great bartenders and servers, the drinks that my friends ordered looked delicious (margs seem to be their forte!). We ordered chips and dip trio and it came out almost immediately. The guac is nice and chunky and I personally was not a fan of the salsa but it had a tangy/cilantro taste to it, if you're into that! We stayed a little later so eventually got to a real table and ordered food. I ordered the shrimp po boy and was astounded by how giant the shrimp were. Needless to say, I was stuffed after my meal. It's a cool spot and only a few steps away from the beach so definitely check it out. Bonus - lots of dogs! read more

Millie's - Shrimp po boy - Tex-Mex Near Me - Nantucket, Massachusetts

It's a really cool place. Have been here once before and loved it. However, our second time here will be our last time here. Arrived at 7:45 for our 8pm reservation. We were sat at almost 9pm. We had the altar rock trio app which was very good. The problems then started there. Our food took over an hour to come out after ordering. It got to a point where everyone was cheering when their food came because it took so long. Food was lackluster at best. Lobster roll was extremely mediocre, no butter, no mayo, no garnish just cold lobster on a bun. Cisco was good, we enjoyed that. Rhode Island quesadilla as well, steak had no salt or pepper on it, very bland. Overall, food was just not worth the steep price tag Then there was the rice side. So weird, cold bland rice with veggies and no way to change the side according to our server. After one bite no one touched it. TLDR: I'm sure there's some great stuff here, but there's just so much better food elsewhere especially where you don't have to wait ages for a table. read more

Delicious food! Locals suggested to try this place out for lunch - we knew we are in for a treat with that kind of recommendation. We weren't too hungry so kept it light with soup and salad. Corn and clam chowder soup was tasty and fresh. I enjoyed every single bite of it. Salad was very fresh, crunchy with just the perfect dressing. We got the corner table with fantastic view. Unlike other places, they have better view from inside of the restaurant then outside. Servers / staff was very sweet, prompt and courteous. Do give this place a try, you won't regret it. read more

Great food and good service! Hadley was super friendly and took great care of us. Definitely recommend Millie's for great views and a relaxed, tasty meal. read more

This was one of our favorite restaurants on the island and the only one within walking distance of us as we were staying in Madaket. All the casual but elevated dishes we tried here were excellent, and I got to satisfy my lobster cravings multiple times in salads and quesadillas where they didn't skimp at all on the prime ingredient. Although pricey, it was definitely no worse than any other restaurant on the island, but was easier to get into last minute and the only place we visited multiple times. Ambiance out by the beach on a nice day is fabulous. Don't miss this spot if near Madaket. read more

Millie's - Westender tacos - Tex-Mex Near Me - Nantucket, Massachusetts

First time to Millie's after multiple visits to Nantucket. We biked to Madaket, so earned our lunch and refueled for the rest of our riding. It seems we were there late enough in the season that there wasn't much of a lunch rush (on a Thursday), so we sat on the deck and enjoyed the ocean breeze while having fish tacos and a Cliff Road salad - all were delicious. I've heard breakfast is great too - maybe next trip. read more

Great place to eat. The food is amazing!!! People are the best. The upstairs bar is the best in the whole place you need to go. read more

The service is super quick. The alter rock - best part was the guacamole and would just get that next time. The cheese was a little thick. The salsa a little spicy for me. The tacos were good but perhaps sauce on the side would be best as I felt they were overdressed and again became spicy. The salad was good. The negative part was found a chip of a plate in the guacamole - they did remove from the bill but a stop by from a manager with apology would have gone along way and perhaps offer a replacement. read more

My family stays in Madaket and we typically have dinner at Millie's at least once a summer. The menu has run its course. We were discussing how the menu has basically remained unchanged since they opened around 2010. There are never any "specials" or new offerings. I see they have opened a location mid-island (guess what... it's the same menu). The food is average at best. The service is good. The best thing is the view at sunset. read more

We returned to Millie's hoping for a good dinner a few nights ago and after the meal have decided we won't be back. Everything seems premade on their menu and out from the kitchen to your table in minutes lacking flavor. Our order included: 1. Guacamole and chips, hands down the worst guacamole I have ever tasted. Filled with some type of preservative that made it taste carbonated. 2. Kids steak taco - un-seasoned steak in a tortilla with a side of rice and fruit (grapes and clementine segments) 3. Moors End Farm Salad - this was ok according to my party member who ordered it but it lacked seasoning. 4. Pocomo Tacos - lacking flavor, thrown together and tasted like "cafeteria food" 5. Rhode Island Avenue - the sever apologized for how much later this arrived to the table compared to everyone else's food as theirs was at the table within 5 minutes. My meal was clearly the only freshly cooked one but again the steak lacked seasoning and was very chewy. Enough so that I took it all out and ate the quesadilla without it. We have eaten at Millie's every summer for years but the food has progressively gone downhill for the last 3 seasons. I do not leave a negative review to hurt the restaurant but I hope they will read this and take the time to consider a different approach to their quality of food. Having freshly cooked food properly seasoned as well as the ability to change proteins or adjust the meals to one's food restrictions/preferences would greatly enhance the diners experience. read more

Always wonderful meals delivered by professional and friendly staff. Can't beat the quesadilla! Or, most anything else on the menu. read more

Get the queso!! This was the best queso I have ever had. My friend brought me here and said we each had to get our own because it's so incredible. She was correct! We also tried some margaritas and quesadillas. Everything was great and the bartenders were awesome. We also enjoyed the live music and the overall vibe. I will be back (specifically for the queso)!!! read more

Millie's is a SoCal vibe in Nantucket, where everything fresh and from the sea meets expert preparation and flair that is rarely seen in such a highly affluent area. This isn't super intricate or delicate food. It's a more simple preparation and just treating the ingredients with respect and having a deft hand with seasoning. Whether you are talking about lobster, slow-cooked pork, locally-caught fish or seafood, it just all feels so perfectly balanced when you look at the entire plate of food. We ordered probably 12 different dishes and no one was disappointed with any of the items ordered. We not only ate outside at the picnic tables, under a tent, but also got chips+queso+margaritas to go (to the nearby beach). They offer a lot of value and food for the money you spend. The staff and process in being seated and served was seamless. The eating area was clean and spotless, after being sanitized in front of us before we sat. I don't care where you are on the island - make sure you get to Millie's... and if you need a suggestion - look for the Lobster Roll under the "Po'Boys"... where it "hides"!!!! read more

I live in SF and was visiting a friend on the island. She recommended Millie's so off we went. I know what is like to live in an expensive city, but I will happily pay for a good meal. This was not a good meal. The food seemed prepped ahead of time and then microwaved. It was too salty. It was not at all what we expected. Besides that, I guess it was a long, hard summer because the employees (short staffed for sure) apparently thought that if they ignored us, we would go away. I hate to write a poor review and, as an ex-server, I get it. But aside form the glorious view, this was a major disappointment. read more

This was once a local favorite. It has become more popular now. They do not take reservations (at least for now) and there is almost always a wait. But it is well worth it! They will text you when the table is ready. You are able to sit outside and get drinks while you wait. You just order at the window and find a tall table. They do have takeout as well. Their drinks are yummy and I love their tacos and quesadillas (40th Pole). The food is tex-mex but not as greasy or cheesy as other restaurants on the mainland. I HIGHLY recommend their Mexican corn. Parking lot is small, people tend to park on the street. PLEASE do not park in people's driveways or in front of their house. Casual attire, dogs welcome outside. read more

We always love Millie's when we visit Nantucket. It's a great place for salads, tacos and quesadillas. Very busy at times. We got there early and were promptly seated and waited on. Super friendly staff. Meals are always good. Love the Cliff Road salmon salad. So many choices of tacos and quesadillas!! Fun drinks too! read more

Great spot. Go late afternoon for a Madaket Mystery before the young uns take over. Long live The Westender!

It is rare that I find a perfectly crafted Caesar salad but this was IT!! This was the best first meal in Nantucket that I could have had! Such a cute and clean establishment in Madaket with friendly, accommodating staff. This wasn't my only time having a delicious meal from Millie's while I was on my trip. When I was at Cisco Brewers, I stopped by the Millie's food truck and got myself a salmon poke bowl! It was AMAZING! Definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone that wants a great meal with an ocean view :) read more

Given all of the hype, I started to temper expectations, and then somehow Millie's was able to live up to the initial high praise set by literally everyone I know. I had the Westender, which were some of the best fish tacos I've had on the East Coast, if not the best. My fish was seasoned aggressively and cooked to perfection. The corn tortillas were actually structurally sound, and held together, even with the heft of the fish and salsa. Added bonus was their homemade hot sauce; I made sure to grab a bottle to take home from their little store next door. read more

Holy cow this place stunk. Tab for lunch was $114 for two entrees, one drink, one beer, and one soda. Halibut tacos were borderline inedible (so dry + cold). Chips + guac + queso + salsa were average at best. Food came out in 30sec ... pre-made. I would not return. Worse than anything I've had at home in Chicago. read more
